Meditation Training Tip: Just Meditate
Try this: The next time you find yourself wound up tight with too many things to do and not enough time to do them in, stop everything, sit down, and let go. Visualize all those to-do’s, issues, and problems turning into white feathers, as one by one you release them, watching them fall lightly to the floor. Just like the feather, these tasks cannot be rushed, but rather must take time to sort themselves out. A feather, like any object, cannot defy gravity, and it will come down eventually. Rather than worry about how quickly it will come down, focus instead on the ethereal dance of the feather. Imagine what life would be like if you came upon the events in your own life the way a feather alights — without pressure or weight. See yourself moving here and there throughout your day with effortless ease.

Now, personally, I use this practice frequently. Currently, I am in the process of buying and selling a house. The buying part is working out just fine. The selling part is another story. I find it hard to put such a large and personal task into the hands of a realitor. With all my frustrations building up, I have had to STOP, SIT DOWN, and LET IT GO at least two to three times a day. Sometimes, I close my eyes, use my heart breath, and just take a 20 minute snooze. That works too!
